No Internet for 48 hours

Internet went down 2 days ago, still down now. Power and WiFi lights on the router are green, Internet light is off. We changed absolutely nothing from how it was working before. Multiple resets, power cycles and cable disconnects and reconnects have done nothing. Sky say there's no local issues.

Use this link to check if there are any issues locally that may identify a known fault which could be affecting multiple households ~

Its always worth rechecking it as the Service Checker doesn’t necessarily disclose a problem immediately and there is up to an hours delay before it picks up a lost connection so we tend to advise trying it again later.

If there aren't any then try running the line test here

You can also run the test via the MySky app on a mobile data connection.

Once completed, if it reports back that all is okay click on 'broadband' to run an updated test. If you get amber or red you need to follow the on-screen instructions.

If you’re still having problems you may need to report it to Sky. The easiest way is to dial 150 free from your Sky Talk landline if it’s still working.

Working from home?; Sky broadband discussed on here is a domestic service and whilst Sky say it's fine for customers working from home to use it, they won’t receive additional or quicker support.

That doesn't rule out a fault in the circuit to your address (which is in fact much more likely than an area outage)
